Animal Eye Clinic of Spokane
​
Our lobby is open, however due to the size of our examination rooms we ask our pet parents to remain in the lobby while we perform the ophthalmic examination. Once the exam is finished the doctor will review the findings with you in person.
We are happy to provide curb-side service if preferred, please let us know when you call or text to check in.
The safety of our clients, staff and their families remain our priority and we thank you for your continued cooperation, support and understanding.

Why choose a Specialist:
​
What is a Board Certified Veterinary Ophthalmologist?​
A board certified veterinary ophthalmologist is someone who has completed an undergraduate bachelor’s degree, 4 years of veterinary medical school, 1-year internship in small animal medicine and surgery, and finally a 3-year residency program in ophthalmology. Once the residency program has been completed the individual then undergoes the process of becoming board certified which consists of presenting a credentials package to the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmology Exam Committee. Once the credentials package has been accepted the applicant is then able to sit for the examination; which is a four-day process that consists of written, practical and surgical portions. Once the veterinarian has successfully completed all portions of the examination they are recognized as a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists and are considered to be board certified.
​
Why a Veterinary Ophthalmologist? When does your pet need a specialist?
The American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists promotes excellence in veterinary ophthalmology through advanced training, certification, research and education.
